I am a graduate of Texas A&M University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Ecology. I also attended Dallas Baptist University and graduated with a degree in Educational Leadership. I have taught may science subjects including 5th grade, 7th grade, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and AP Environmental Science. Additionally, I have taught elementary gifted and talented and helped prepare high school students for the SAT, ACT, and PSAT while serving as the Advanced Academic Coordinator. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, we create breakthrough moments that help us both become better teachers and learners.. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading that which enriches my life, yoga, running, working in the yard, and spending time with my family.

"An investment in knowledge pays the best interest"- Benjamin FranklinI'm a Senior at UNC-Charlotte. I double major in Psychology and Anthropology and have a proven track record of success in Language Arts. My teaching method focuses more on retention and complete mastery of subjects, as opposed to learning designed around specific tests. Despite my teaching style, I've earned high scores on every standardized test I've ever taken.My goal in tutoring is to help encourage others to enjoy learning as much as I do!

I achieved my undergraduate degree in mathematics from the University of Connecticut. Soon afterward, I left the US to teach mathematics, physics, and science to island peoples on remote islands in the Pacific Ocean area known as Micronesia. From there, I travelled to Africa and taught mathematics of all levels, grades 6 to 12, under the British international curriculum at an international school in central Tanzania. I then shifted back the US to teach at a high school in Massachusetts near to where I grew up, while completing my master's degree in mathematics at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. My latest, and perhaps my last, international adventure has been the last few years living in the capital of Ethiopia, teaching the International Baccalaureate curriculum at an international school in Addis Ababa. Between my teaching, I tutor students of all levels, most often in preparation for standardized tests, like the IGCSE, A-levels, SATs, and the IB, among others. When I was not involving myself in education, I was DJing at festivals and events in and around the towns or cities where I was residing at the time.

Hello! My name is Irene, nice to meet you. I'm recent college graduate with academic experience across the board, including history (my major), data analysis (my minor), music, sociology, Spanish, and math, and I love sharing what I know with other students. Before college, I wrote many a college application essay and took practice test upon practice test for the SAT, SAT subject tests, AP tests, and ACTs. I was greatly helped by my academic mentors back then and would love to help you out now if you need assistance with that process.I've tutored in a variety of subjects for several years, including algebra, Spanish, Python, and U.S. civics, and I'm a strong believer in everyone getting the academic help they need. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need assistance with any of the subjects I can teach!

I am a current undergraduate student at Columbia University in New York City, pursuing a Bachelors of Arts in History and Economics. These are two of the subjects that I enjoy tutoring the most, but I also have a penchant for tutoring and learning about math and literature. I am passionate about tutoring because I benefited from the personalized guidance of great tutors in my past and I really enjoy seeing students push themselves and develop an appreciation for subject areas or even the mental exercise of test-taking thanks to tutoring. I also believe that tutoring a subject area is the greatest way to maintain and develop understanding of its material for both the student and the tutor. I was an active tutor in high school in mathematics and history and as I take more classes in college, I look forward to tutoring students in those in which I understood the material really well. In my spare time, I enjoy reading about history, camping, biking, and traveling when I can (or exploring the incredible city of New York)!

My name is Pamina and I hold a TESOL Certificate from Columbia University and a TESOL Master's Degree from Columbia University, Teachers College. I have taught ESL to adults at Columbia University as well as over the past 5+ years at Berlitz US, Varsity Tutors, InAmerica EDU, an education consulting firm, and privately. As well, I teach creative writing, ELA, and college application essay prep. My approach is holistic and I teach my students under the Communicative Language Approach, where students learn through elicitation, strengthening their critical thinking skills and autonomy. Many of my students have had great academic success with having been accepted to ivy league institutions such as Columbia University, Harvard University, and Oxford University. Along with this, I also possess experience with private school applications and the college application process after working as an education consultant for 2+ years. I look forward to working with you!

Hello, I'm Sam! I have a scientific background in education, but love to read and have a knack for English and writing. I'm looking forward to helping all types of students unlock their potential through education!

How did a history teacher become my favorite instructor when I am way more interested in other subjects? Passion. His passion was contagious; despite the huge range of social sciences offered at Ohio State, I took Ancient World History and Classical Greek History because of his 7th grade social studies seminar course on ancient societies. When I tutor English or Math, I emulate his passion. I can't help myself! In fact, I earned an English Degree in addition to my Psychology BA because I enjoy reading and writing so much. I'm not just a book worm though. I'm a huge sports fan (especially for my Buckeye Football National Champs!), I'm a total gym rat, and I have the stereotypical love for all things girly: hair, makeup, fashion, etc. Most importantly, however, I love teaching. I utilize my psychology experience to foster a comfortable environment for my students and help them know they are safe to ask questions. I work very hard to ensure that my students and I are on the same page and I won't move on to another task until they feel ready. I'm here to make difficult subjects fun, exciting, and seem easy.

I am a results-oriented professional engineer, educator, contractor and project manager; I have a broad range of technical and instructional design experience with consultants, government agencies, local schools and universities. I have worked and volunteered as an instructor, tutor and learning designer for over 10 years. I currently tutor students and provide instructional assistance in Math at Grand Canyon University and instruct students (K-6) in Science for a Valley area after-school program. I enjoy seeing students learn and overcome challenging subjects; especially in the areas of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) and students learning English as second language. I am a proponent of educational development, mentoring and community outreach; lending my skills and expertise while volunteering and working for various professional associations, technical groups and after-school programs such as Future City Engineering, Mad Science and Women's Step-Up Network.My experience working in a diverse environments has led me to understand the need for differentiated instructional strategies to address the vary backgrounds and learning capabilities of each student. I am aware of social, ethical and human issues while teaching and the cultural differences that exist in this global world and aim to meet the needs of a diverse population. My instructional strategies and philosophy is grounded in my understanding of the issues of equity and fairness with the belief that all students are appreciated, shown respect and expected to treat each other with the same dignity. I also believe that effective communication is essential for a productive learning environment. Instructions are to be communicated both written and orally; with routine feedback helping to build and encourage students throughout the learning process. Furthermore, I believe that learning should be fun! Therefore, I aim to use tools and techniques that will increase and maintain a student's interest and focus in a subject area.Education/Degrees:Bachelors of Science Civil EngineeringMaster's in Business Administration Management of Information SystemsMasters of Education Curriculum and InstructionsLicenses/Certifications:Licensed Professional EngineerTESOL/TESL/TEFL CertificationCalifornia Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)/Math Grade Level 11; K-12 MathCertifications - 2015

I recently graduated from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor in December 2012 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience and will be attending the University of Connecticut School of Medicine this coming fall.I have consistently played the role of a student mentor throughout high school and my undergraduate experience. My main objective when guiding students, whether their goal is to determine a fitting career path, ace an in-class exam, or prepare for a grueling standardized test, is to instill self-confidence in them. I try to not only help them develop lifelong critical-thinking skills, but also urge them to assertively believe in their personal abilities. If students dedicate themselves fully to the task at hand and have the genuine desire to succeed, then I think they can accomplish almost anything.During my junior and senior year at Michigan, I was a study group leader for both General Chemistry and Animal Physiology at the University’s Science Learning Center. This experience helped me develop essential leadership and facilitative skills to engage my students in active discussion and ingrain the course material. I was attentive to each student’s unique learning style and speed. In order for them to focus beyond rote memorization, I encouraged students to ask each other questions and apply the concepts to real-word scenarios. In addition, working as an advisor at my university's Career Center during my final semester exposed me to a variety of students with diverse cultural, social, and academic backgrounds. I was enthusiastic to not only discuss their academic goals, but also get to know the students on a more personal level. By connecting with them both intellectually and personally, I could attain a better picture of how and why they were making particular career decisions and understand them through a more holistic lens.I feel confident helping students in math and different subjects in science, such as Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Physiology, and Psychology. This can be introductory material to advanced concepts that appear on exams such as SAT subject tests or the MCAT. In addition, I have taken intensive writing courses and received training in writing personal statements that has provided me with skills to help students with their writing and reading abilities.I consider myself a motivated, easy-going, and compassionate individual that loves learning while also passing knowledge on to others. As a student on the brink of beginning a career in medicine, I realize that learning is a lifelong process and that it is critical to establish solid learning strategies early on. With my patient and attentive personality, I hope to help students work on their weaknesses, bolster their strengths, mature as individuals, and to of course have fun while doing it!
